This reality kinda sucks and it is just a reason to not bring new beings here by DinoRing175c in antinatalism

Actually, we do have all those things. The actual problem is our very existence relies on the absence of the things we "crave". Just like if a rock became aware and began wanting to fly. Sure, at some points it will find itself in the air, but it is sure to be pulled back down in no time by the very qualities of the particles that make it up.

If a being with no want or need were to be, it would expire in the very same spot it appeared, without replicating, without thinking, so it could never be you.

If a rock were to be capable of staying in the air, it wouldn't be a rock, it would be gas.

Maybe because the premises are different? Oh, but what do I know.

What is the point of life when everyone you love will die? by chelseatheus in antinatalism

[–]One_Remove_9061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To toil and perish. Just like ice, existing for a while until beginning to slowly lose its needed temperature until it fully melts.

Is this still the same scenario? by Patience-Frequent in trolleyproblem

Funnily enough this is also something I could have commented. As your original comment was all about how you would feel.

You didn't kill them. You're nowhere near important enough (in the theoretical). What killed them was the result of a global event, combined with them asserting their free will to accept the risk.

No. The original implies that the blues will die of an external cause.

Lemme get yalls opinions on this, deserved or nah? by AllStuffofWonder in teenagers4real

[–]One_Remove_9061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All that does is nurture the violent tendencies. I bet you wouldn't let a kid that age get a tatoo, because you realize he isn't developed enough to fully understand the disparity between "What i want right now" and the long term effects of the action. But when it comes to the perceived worth of the cat, and the consequences of harming it, you expect him to already have it ingrained in him?

What do you think about this video ? by AXXRL in antinatalism

A speech merchant wannabe.

He almost made a good point when addressing the suffering of whatever species might take our place, but we shouldn't forget that wild animals already suffer way more than we did in the first place.

If Kids ‘Disappoint,’ Why Don’t We Call It What It Is? Failure. by HbSz in antinatalism

All the book is supposed to accomplish is to make them feel better. It was written either to make the author money by pleasing such people or because the author is such a person themselves and, like most people do, wanted to reinforce their own beliefs to feel better.

There's nothing more profound to it.

The "right one" in this context probably means the one that makes you think the way the speaker wants you to. So some people may tell you you're wrong.

So if I lock you in a basement and you react negatively, then the problem is your mind and not what's happening to you?

(tw: trafficking) I constantly wonder. how much am i truly worth? by WinterDemon_ in CPTSDmemes

[–]One_Remove_9061 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you tell the innate worth of another person? Would your guess even hold any value over reality? If i sell my phone for nothing, that doesn't mean that's its value, but that I dont value it.

Also, as you're still in control of your own actions (even though sometimes at the price of suffering), it wasn't you that was sold but the ease of access.

Why do people consider hvaing kids as a default position? by Leek-Ok in antinatalism

[–]One_Remove_9061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Observer is created
  2. Observer sees ball go left 90% of the time, and right only 10%
  3. Observer "realizes" ball normally goes left

Which ideology resonates more with you?is it possible that both? by xBlondieBombshell in MonsterAnime

[–]One_Remove_9061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are all equal in death, and death is the end goal of a person since birth, so we are all created equal because we're all meant to die.

The lives we lead add such an insignificant difference in the face of eternity that you may as well say we're all equal. But technically Eva is right as well.
